Greggs Sausages Rolls

Tom was caught short today and needed a toilet. As there are very few public toilets Tom risked going into a bakery called Greggs. He felt he had to buy something if he used their toilets and decided on their so called fameous sausage roll. It was not as big as Tom expected. Is this shrinkflation. Tom used the toilet and washed his hands and bought the greasy sausage roll and gave it to a common vagrant camping in a nearby doorway outside. The tramp took it but said, 'Just the one! Usually they buy me a pack of four'. More shrinkflation Tom thought. He does not mind buying a sausage roll for a vagrant but he is not feeding him for a week.

"I'm more impressed that there are Greggs with toilets in them"

Surely they must have toilets if you sit in to eat. Isn't that the law,?

Surely the poor need to wash their hands more than the rest. If they work it's mostly manual work surely.

Other than in service areas or garages, I have never been in a Greggs with a toilet (and I have been in lots of Greggs)

On a note of contention, imho, a Greggs sausage roll is better eaten cold than it is hot

I love a Greggs Sausage roll! Haven’t noticed them shrinking in size unlike chocolate bars and crisps. They also do a mean bacon roll!

I am on your side. There are NO Greggs with toilets.

Greggs are shops not cafes, despite having one or two tables

BUT........ and i've said this before in here .

PRIMARK in Liverpool has a hooj Greggs Cafe In pink , yellow and blue.... and THAT Greggs has a toilet .... one of the alltogether now ones.....

It's quite easy to save on sausage rolls reduced meat quality higher fat content.

Those cheeky vagrants probably urinated all over the toilet seat.

No because sausage isn’t synonymous with meat. There’s chicken sausages, you wouldn’t call a chicken sausage roll a chicken roll. You’d call it a chicken sausage roll.

I think the law says if you have over a certain amount of seating then you must supply toilet facilities, clearly Greggs know the number unlike me though we have been in a Greggs that had a single disabled loo, guessing that was an error on the part of the architect who was made to eat an oven fresh Steakbake and died of oral burns

Just doesn’t sit right with me, sausage is sausage as in pork lol, chicken sausage doesn’t sit right either, that would be better described as a chicken pasty, also why are they called rolls when they are generally not roll shaped?

I know right - us southern poofs should have just stuck with our artisan boulangeries staffed with geography graduates with man-buns

seriously tho - my local Greggs is a breath of fresh air - a decent cup of coffee with an extra shot for under £2 if I bring my adult sippy cup - the staff all know my name (in my case it's from the wanted posters - but they do it for nice people as well) and will occasionally "forget" to charge me for no other reason than they feel like it's nice to be nice every now and then.

There's no legally mandated requirements to feed the homeless Tom but it's a sweet touch, giving your sausage roll away, after getting to use the loo.

I can’t get my head around this vegan thing, if there’s no sausage meat how can it be a sausage roll? Is ot not a vegan roll?

No because sausage isn’t synonymous with meat. There’s chicken sausages, you wouldn’t call a chicken sausage roll a chicken roll. You’d call it a chicken sausage roll.

Just doesn’t sit right with me, sausage is sausage as in pork lol, chicken sausage doesn’t sit right either, that would be better described as a chicken pasty, also why are they called rolls when they are generally not roll shaped?

A sausage is a descriptive word about a shape, it’s not a synonym for pork "

Fuck so what is a ham burger ??

Cos I want BEEF not fucking pig.

"I'm more impressed that there are Greggs with toilets in them

Note that the poster is from Essex.

In Essex, Greggs is the equivalent of an artisan boulangerie in Chelsea - so you get a bit more for your money in one there.

The south didn’t deserve Greggs.

I've genuinely heard the one on Byres Road called "A Patiserrie"..

Aye but the Rupert’s and cressida’s of the west end are a different breed altogether

Ahem...

Sorry did you patiserrie just repeat on you ?

no Rupert did allegedly "

Oh is that why he said he likes a foot long one ?

The hamburger was invented in Hamburg.

Greggs has gone to the dogs. I remember the days when they’d have counters full of cakes, sandwiches, rolls etc.

These days their cake selection is pretty dire.

And I prefer Peter’s Sausage rolls. Not sure if they’re a Welsh make or available up and down the Country at a retailer near you.

Peters sausage rolls are grim in Tom's opinion..

I have to say, I quite like the vegan sausage roll, less flake for a start!

Just wondering why you went for a sausage roll and as you never had one before, didn't eat it yourself? I mean what you did was lovely giving it away to someone that needed it more.

"

On a note of contention, imho, a Greggs sausage roll is better eaten cold than it is hot"

Just as well, they are never better than lukewarm.
